*** SPECIAL NOTICE ***
Since my current account will cease to exist shortly, I have set up a mail
drop box for any changes. The address is arsh@cerebus.acusd.edu. I probably
will not be able to make any revisions or reply to any submissions until
early October, and things may be busy for me even then, so if I do not
acknowledge a message immediately, it doesn't mean that I didn't get it or
that I'm ignoring you; rather, it means I do not have the access or the time
to do so.
If you have any details on these sites (a general topic listing would be
nice), or any to add or remove, please e-mail me at arsh@cerebus.acusd.edu.
Note that I don't list fluff sites (game related fiction) or piles of
moves from an online game. (However, if the site should have other stuff
*and* fluff, it can be listed.)
Note: I didn't go through these with a fine-toothed comb. I might have
missed things. Therefore, do not take the pathname or the little blurb
as set in stone and perfect.
DISCLAIMER: I make no claims as to the accuracy of any information on this
list. All trademarks are the property of their respective companies, and
their use here should not be construed as a breach of that companies' right
to that trademark. Use the information here at your own risk.
ftp://cerebus.acusd.edu/Role-Playing
Lots of information, especially legalese and papers debunking the
popular view of roleplaying games. (note: this site runs on a Mac, so
there are lots of spaces in the filenames.)
ftp://ftp.cs.pdx.edu/pub/frp
A wide range of systems, though some have less presence than others.
ftp://ftp.csua.berkeley.edu/pub
Lots of stuff in individually named directories. Ars Magica, BattleTech,
RuneQuest, Storyteller, Call of Cthulhu, Palladium, FUDGE, and various
roleplaying magazines.
ftp://ftp.funet.fi/pub/doc/games/roleplay
Here one may find (A)D&D, Rolemaster, Spacemaster, Shadowrun, MERP, Harn,
and Earthdawn.
ftp://ftp.indirect.com/pub/rpg
This is a mirror of ftp.wais.com, below.
ftp://ftp.io.com/pub
Lots of stuff. GURPS stuff is in both sjgames and GURPSnet. There is a
Storyteller site at /pub/usr/ebartley/Storyteller.
ftp://ftp.itis.com/pub
There are mostly trading card games here.
ftp://ftp.mpgn.com/
TSR's official ftp site.
ftp://ftp.nau.edu/pub/rpg
Items relating to Tekumel, Traveller, Shadowrun and ICE have a place here.
ftp://ftp.tierzucht.uni-kiel.de/pub/RPG/
I found directories for Chaosium (looked like a mailing list), Forgotten
Futures, and GURPS here.
ftp://ftp.umd.umich.edu/pub/frp
There is a miniatures mailing list archive here; there are also D&D,
Ragnarok, and mecha areas.
ftp://ftp.wais.com/pub/games
The major sections are for Cyberpunk 2020 and miniatures gaming, as well as
sections for FUDGE, NUELOW, Call of Cthulhu, CORPS, Axis & Allies, Circa 7000,
SORD (official), and the DC Heroes mailing list. (Also official). Any problems
on this archive or ftp.indirect.com in the gaming area should be reported to
britt@wais.com.
ftp://ics.uci.edu/usenet/rec.games.frp
There are some character sheets, hex paper, and some fluff (Navero).
ftp://suphys.physics.su.oz.au/mar
I think all the information is in /mar/frp, but there might be some elsewhere.
There isn't much here -- a copy of opigs, texts on planets and time travel,
and a metric GURPS speed/range table.
